(Port-au-Prince, Haiti)
Sequins and beads on fabric (40” x 31”),
c.2005.
This flag is extremely densely beaded and sequinned (and thus extremely heavy), in the manner of the artists Constant and Simeon.
Note that the signature is reversed. The bead artists work from the back or underside of the flag and sometimes do not correct for this, so that both the image and the writing will be the reverse of the original drawing.
This flag is being sold by Judy Hoffman for the benefit of the Art Creation Foundation for Children, which she founded in Jacmel, Haiti.
